First time I've gone to the beach in probably 10 years. I'd forgetten just how relaxing it can be to sit in solace and admire nature away from the computer. And I was getting paid for it too, I didn't have any assignments today from my newspaper so I just went and looked for "wild art", or just taking pictures of stuff you see driving around. I took a couple hundred photos but turned in these three for publication tommorow. Which do you like best?

too bad you dont have one where he is actually catching the fish.
But i would say the 1st one (on the left) looks the nicest, since its flying and all.

He didn't pluck him from the water...there were dozens of small fish and a couple 10-15 pounders washed up on shore. They were just plucking them from the beach and taking off.

#1 - no contest.

Nice shots. How come you didn't take pictures of any gulls directly overhead?

When I'm getting paid I shoot only for whats "unique" in terms of my subject. Relatively, everyone see the gulls flying overhead. I wouldn't be showing them anything new, unless there was a swarm of them or something. At least that's how I was thinking in terms of submitting these photos.
